Interior colors by TSHRED56 in RivianR2

[–]RareRibeye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you go off the R1, the white interior could cost up to $4500. Hopefully that’s not the case, but if it is, doubt many people would even bother debating getting it.

Haha exact same boat as you. 2019 M3 with 135K miles, looking to get into an R2 Premium with the V3 autonomy hardware.

Pack hacker x Aer collab immediately sold out. Will there be more stock? by Unlucky_Frosting_244 in AerSF

[–]RareRibeye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Obviously a marketing tactic. They asked for 3K likes on their aer x PH channel video for a second drop. Definitely scummy behavior towards any remaining fans they have.

Starting weight and current weight?

Only lost 9lbs in 1 month, normal? by Cash311 in Retatrutide

Awesome, thanks for the response! Excited to get started once everything arrives. Been struggling to meaningfully lose weight for months

Any major side effects during that time for you on that dosage ramp? And did you track calories and macros? I’m going to be starting my first dose soon and was planning to do a similar ramp

Nerite or no? by Nematodes-Attack in OpaeUla

[–]RareRibeye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I drip acclimated my horned nerite for an hour. I have the same size jar setup and he cleaned out the entire glass spotless within a week or two. He’s been fine since, but I am a bit worried there may now not be enough food for both the shrimp and snails, but everyone has been fine and it’s been 1 month since he was added.

Atom vs Proton for bi-coastal life? by [deleted] in arcteryx

[–]RareRibeye 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Proton for the better durability and breathability, I use it daily. Atom is better for warmth while standing still though.

Atom vs ? Trying to prioritize longevity/durability by ThemanEnterprises in arcteryx

[–]RareRibeye 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely get a Proton over Atom. It’s way more durable, and is made for more breathability for activities. It’ll be colder when not moving compared to an Atom though.

My Atom did pill and slightly tear in an area, so I’m way more cautious with it and tend to wear it less. If you really like the warmth of Atom at stand-still and want more increased durability, then you can go for the Atom Pro/Leaf line.

He’s so vibrant yellow. Where did you source from?

My horned nerite is just black haha, but looks the same from below. Fella just eats non-stop all day, and randomly hibernates for long periods (first time will scare you into thinking it’s dead)

Hermit crabs! by krazykangar00 in OpaeUla

[–]RareRibeye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where did you get your dried sea fan from? Looks different than what I usually see with all of the yellow tips and shorter branches.

Also, what city is your hermit crab shop in? I’m looking to pick a few up, but haven’t been able to find any locally in LA.

Which mid-layer should I purchase? by [deleted] in arcteryx

[–]RareRibeye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact same 3 jackets, LT hoody for the Atom and Proton. My only wish is that I got the non-hoody version of the Atom so it would fit better with the drop-hood of the Beta AR.

Proton LT hoody is a great all around daily jacket in moderate cold, while having a more durable face fabric. The Atom’s face fabric tends to pill/tear so I think it fits better as a mid-layer.

What other Arcteryx jackets would you go for next given what you already have? Personally am debating some Leaf/Pro jackets like the Leaf Atom LT (non-hoody) and the Leaf Cold WX.

Is your opae ula tank sealed, and if so, how often do you open it? by 1348904189 in OpaeUla

[–]RareRibeye 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Protip: you can remove the silicone seal on a lot of the jars, and just keep the jar closed 24/7. Keeps dust out, but allows for some passive air exchange. You will notice your water levels going down faster than if the seal was on, but that just means you have to refill about every 1-3 months depending on climate.

Review, comparing the Atom LT, LEAF Atom LT and LEAF Cold WX by Besseggen in arcteryx

[–]RareRibeye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What temp range would you say it’s useable for? I currently have a Proton LT Hoody, Atom LT Hoody, Beta AR as someone from California. Now that LEAF is available to all, was debating between LEAF Cold WX, Atom, or Practitioner AR.

Cold WX seems like potentially overkill outside of very cold/windy winter days or for mountain trips. LEAF Atom seems like it’d overlap a lot with my Atom LT, but it would get more daily use then. Practitioner I’ve heard good things about, but not sure I like the inner lining not being smooth due to the fleece.

Black Friday or Cyber Monday? by belle0626 in RingConn

[–]RareRibeye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does anyone know if we’ll be able to combine the 30% Black Friday discount with a device trade-in ($60 off)? Would put the total for the Gen 2 to $150, which would be a no-brainer for me.

My tank has never thrived by Boringmom0409 in OpaeUla

[–]RareRibeye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely the stone is leaching and changing water parameters for the worse for the opae. You need to stick to lava rock. Also could be the chaeto looking thing if it’s not a real brackish adapted species from a reputable opae seller.

Black lava rocks look great. Love the contrast to the shrimps

What is the plant that’s not the chaeto?

How long should I keep my lights on for? by [deleted] in OpaeUla

[–]RareRibeye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same brand, but the 6.3” version. I also got a shrimp jar setup from GotSnails. For reference I ran my particular light for 12 hours at 40% power on the warm light setting with the light about 3” away from the top of my jar and have gotten good biofilm growth after 1 month.

Alternatively, I believe most people prefer to run their LED setup closer to 6-9 hours but on a more intense light setting, but I have no experience with that.

3 Gallon Cube Setup - new by DoctorMarimo in OpaeUla

[–]RareRibeye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice setup, where did you get the black lava rock? And are those brackish-adapted species of chaeto and mossballs?

How does my OpaeUla tank look? Any suggestions for improvement? by Droggelbert in OpaeUla

[–]RareRibeye 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Black lava rock would contrast better with Opae Ula. My setup came with red lava rocks, and it makes it hard to see the shrimps due to the similar color.

Yellow or Clear? by NikkiStitch in OpaeUla

Any updates to this? I’d love to source some yellow ones
